General Sir Arthur Currie led the Canadian Corps to a series of spectacular victories hastening the end of the Great War. Norm Christie retraces Currie’s rise from amateur soldier to the most successful Allied general.

Military historian Norm Christie hosts a new documentary series, which commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Great War. In this unique series, Norm Christie takes audiences on a pilgrimage to significant Great War sites - some famous, others almost totally unknown. He discovers and tells the stories of Canadian men and women whose skills and courage turned Canada into a force on the world stage.

Author currie makes me proud to be a Canadian....a true worrier and hero..lest we forget..🇨🇦
Great video. I have come to love the story of Arthur Curry. I was in the US Army and I am so impressed by his feeling for the common soldier (as we are called "Grunts". Here is a man who planned planned planned to insure that as many as he could would live to go home to the love of family and respect of Canada for all time. Thank you so much Sir!
I’ve read a lot about ww1, 5 of my family were killed during the course of it, but I have hardly heard of this fine chap. He plainly seems to be the finest general of his day. I knew the Canadian troop were top notch and I put that down to the tough conditions that they were bought up in, but the intelligence of there commanders was something I hadn’t consider. Thanks for the fine film.
He left Strathroy a farm boy but it was Victoria from 1894 to 1914 that forged his military prowess
He was the type of CO or CG you want.......and he got crapped on for it.
Really excellent sculpture, statue, of Arthur ...I lived just outside Strathroy, On. ...in my youth, for a few years ...many interesting memories of farmhouse, we lived in, and winters there
One interesting memorial to Arthur Currie. Robert Heinlein named a training camp after him. In his novel Starship Troopers.
I was appalled by his treatment after the war.The question remains, why is Canada still a monarchy?
Thank you Norm. You are a scholar and a great story teller. True North Strong and Free.
I was watching this on another link, it has so many adds it was unwatchable. I am glad I search and found this link. Same show without an add every few minutes. CHeers
